This Saturday night March 21, 2009 Whistler’s Blake Jorgenson Gallery is hosting the opening party for OG snowboard photographer Dano Pendygrasse’s show Odds And Ends from an Unusual Life. This week Pique News Magazine profiled Dano and got behind the man behind the lens.
While there are plenty of Whistler residents who have been around for the long-haul, witnessing the town’s evolution from a garbage dump into a world-class resort. Dano Pendygrasse has been busy capturing the transformation of the community – more specifically, the snowboard community – from behind the lens of his camera.
If we were in Whistler this weekend, we’d be there.

Earlier this week Portland photographer/ designer Jared Souney tipped us off on the news that snowboard photographer Cole Barash had been named to PDN’s 30 Choice New Photographers list.
Now, Fuel TV gets the back story on the 21-year-old photo slayer with an insightful interview and an amazing collection of his work. So where does Cole turn for inspiration?
Kevin Zacher, for going against the grain in snowboarding and shooting the lifestyle, not the action, as a priority. Ari Marcipolis as well for that. Trevor Graves and his drive to always deliver something fresh. Vincent Skoglund for his moonlight series and his double exposures. Albert Watson and his portraits. Michael Kenna and his landscapes, not your typical landscapes either.
Cole obviously knows where to turn for inspiration, and from the looks of his client list he knows better than most just how to balance art and commerce.

After all of these years of creating very public art and design Andy Jenkins (pictured right with Russ Pope) still gets nervous when people see his new work for the first time. “I get really self-conscious about my work,” he says. “Especially when my family says anything. If they walk into the studio and they don’t say anything and they’re I just looking over my shoulder I go, Ah, man, forget it. They have to say just the right think or I’ll throw the piece away.”
